I'm tired of people trying to police others' speech. This serves no purpose from my perspective, emphasis on the 'my' as it is an individual opinion and as such, not speaking for the whole. People are going to be rude, assholes, and this will be how life is eternally. Your 'jerk' or 'racist' may be viewed completely differently by another person who has a different set of values and if you can't find the ability to read, comprehend, and understand their perspectives then I find you may be equally guilty of what you accuse them of doing.

Food for thought.
